The Breathing Wall
The Breathing Wall tells the story of a girl, Lana, communicating with her boyfriend, Michael, through the wall of his prison cell. She is dead; he's been falsely convicted of her murder.
A CD-ROM based work written and produced by Stefan Schemat, Kate Pullinger and Chris Joseph, the story is told in parts, alternating between day-dreams and night-dreams. The night-dreams reside within the 'Hyper Trance Fiction Matrix', an experimental software that allows the story to respond to the listener's rate of breathing via a standard headset.
